Exploration of Chinese paths of socialist construction and demographic transition paralleled each other from 1949 to 1978.Mortality rate decreased rapidly during the early 1950s as a result of the public health campaign,which initiated the process of demographic transition in China.Countering the problem of rapid population growth in 1950s,China put forward the theory and the concept of "realizing planned childbearing",and the Chinese model of demographic transition was brewing.Orientation of the Chinese path of demographic transition was reinforced in the 1960s in the context of intensifying contradiction between population and socio-economic development.Finally,China launched the demographic transition by vigorously implementing population control and family planning in the 1970s in the midst of "Cultural Revolution" when the rapidly increasing size of population exerted great pressure on economic development.The Chinese path of demographic transition is determined by the changing characteristics of the times and China's special national conditions.
Exploration of Chinese paths of socialist construction and demographic transition paralleled each other from 1949 to 1978. Mortality rate decreased rapidly during the early 1950s as a result of the public health campaign, which initiated the process of demographic transition in China. Countering the problem of rapid population growth in 1950s, China put forward the theory and the concept of ＂realizing planned childbearing＂, and the Chinese model of demographic transition was brewing. Orientation of the Chinese path of demographic transition was reinforced in thc 1960s in the context of intensifying contradiction between population and socio-economic development. Finally, China launched the demographic transition by vigorously implementing population control and family planning in the 1970s in the midst of ＂Cultural Revolution＂ when the rapidly increasing size of population exerted great pressure on economic development.
